Description: Writer pastes incorrectly when copying from HTML with the <time> tag. I copied some text from a web page that included the following HTML snippet: (<time datetime="2022">2022</time>). When I tried to paste the text on Writer, I got the following unexpected result: (). However, using Paste Unformatted Text gives the expected result: (2022). I am using Version 7.2.3.2 (Ubuntu package, version 1:7.2.3-0ubuntu0.21.10.1). Localization: es-CO Steps to Reproduce: 1. Copy text from a web page including the <time> tag 2. Paste onto Writer Actual Results: Text from the web page should be pasted on Writer Expected Results: The text in the <time> tag is pasted on Writer (is ignored). Other text is pasted as expected. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version 7.2.3.2, Ubuntu package version 1:7.2.3-0ubuntu0.21.10.1, Localization es-CO
I found the same issue with the <abbr> tag. Copying from a web page containing this HTML snippet: (<abbr title="Portable Document Format">PDF</abbr>) Results in "()" rather than "(PDF)" when pasting onto Writer.

[1] Go to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/time and copy the contents of the output box. It reads "The Cure will be celebrating their 40th anniversary on July 7 in London's Hyde Park." and "The concert starts at 20:00 and you'll be able to enjoy the band for at least 2h 30m." Pasting it into Writer I get "The Cure will be celebrating their 40th anniversary on in London's Hyde Park." and "The concert starts at and you'll be able to enjoy the band for at least ." [2] Go to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/abbr and copy the contents of the output box. It reads "You can use CSS to style your HTML." Pasting into Writer I get "You can use to style your ."

Ruben, thank you for the links. I can't confirm it with Version: 7.3.0.3 (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 0f246aa12d0eee4a0f7adcefbf7c878fc2238db3 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-GB Calc: CL At https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/time I've copied "The concert starts at 20:00." and "The concert took place on May 15." from the the output boxes and pasted it in Writer. Time and date are displayed. At https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/abbr I've copied "Using CSS, you can style your abbreviations!" from the result box and pasted it in writer. Whole sentece is displayed. So perhaps only a problem in Linux? You can also try it with LO 7.3

Indeed, there is no problem on Windows, but testing on Linux with various older versions back to 3.5.0 I see the issue. Not dependent on UI backend.
